Recent demands for increased care for people with behavioral health problems often miss the severe shortage of skilled workers in the field. For many years, researchers, clinical administrators and policy makers have been calling for curricula revision at professional schools, increased financial incentives for employee recruitment and retention, increased reimbursement rates, and greater attention to diversity within the health care workforce. States have created special task forces and commissions to make recommendations for improving this essential element of access to behavioral health care. A review of their findings shows a remarkable similarity of recommendations and a clear path forward.
最近对行为健康问题患者的护理需求增加，但往往忽视了该领域熟练工人的严重短缺。多年来，研究人员、临床管理人员和政策制定者一直呼吁专业学校修改课程，增加对员工招聘和留用的财政激励，提高报销率，并更加关注医疗保健劳动力中的多样性。各州已经成立了特别工作组和委员会，为改善获得行为保健的这一基本要素提出建议。对他们调查结果的审查表明，建议非常相似，而且有明确的前进道路。
